Cafe Soto

I don't often venture over to North Avalon but as the polo was on I thought I'd take a look.
A sign advertising Bahn Mi - or pork rolls drew me off Barrenjoey Rd into the strip of Careel Bay shops.
Once inside the friendly cafe I switched to the pulled pork roll instead.
Tasty hickory favoured pork with a fresh salad inside a white roll.

Cranzgot's Pizza Cafe - CRANZGOTS

North Avalon on a balmy autumn evening is the perfect setting for some casual dining. This Friday night at Cranzgots the place is full of happy families seated inside and out. The kitchen has about seven staff who are working like a well-oiled machine, they are really working that gas oven to the max.

We phoned our order in and were told there would be a 50 minute wait, it was ready in 40 - so well done. I only ordered a Margarita - as this is my favourite - so my review will only concentrate on this. Of course to be fair there looks to be a good range of the gourmet topping types and they looked really good (Should have ordered the Irene!.

My Pizza: Plenty of mozzarella on top - maybe too much and the pizza base needed a touch more crisping up. Generous serve - there was leftovers for the next day.

This is the place to bring your family - I recommend ordering ahead if you want to cut your wait time down and don't want the little tackers eating their arm off.

Cost for two: $18
